The Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination is set to meet in August with town officials and former town police officer Joyce Graf about her gender discrimination case.

Graf, 56, claimed discrimination based on disability, gender and retaliation while on the job in the 2009 complaint – her second filed with the MCAD in three years.

She won an appeal in March after contesting an MCAD decision last year that had found lack of probable cause in her 2009 complaint.

Both sides are now set to attend a conciliation hearing on Aug. 1 to see if the case can be settled before it goes to a public hearing.

Reached at her West Bridgewater home Tuesday, Graf said she is looking forward to the conciliation in August.

“I’m hoping that it finally gets settled,” Graf said. “I was very happy to win the appeal.”

In her 2009 complaint, Graf stated that she had suffered a back injury while on the job and had back surgery in April 2007. She was on injured, on-duty leave from April 2007 until August 2008, MCAD records show.

Graf claimed in her complaint that in August 2008 she asked Police Chief Donald Clark to place her on light duty, and he stated there is no light duty available, MCAD records show. Graf claimed that a male officer had been granted light duty, and he had been working only at his desk and not in the field since 1993, MCAD records show.

Graf claimed Clark said her only option was to request early retirement and in April 2009 Graf received a letter from Clark that she officially retired, MCAD records show.

Graf claimed that she was forced into retirement due to her sex, disability and for filing another MCAD complaint in 2006, MCAD records show.

“I had no choice. It’s a forced retirement,” Graf said Tuesday. “(Clark) said, ‘You put in the paperwork or I’ll do it for you.’”

Clark and Lt. Victor Flaherty, the Police Department’s spokesman, did not return calls for comment Tuesday.

Town Administrator Elizabeth Faricy said Tuesday the case “is being handled through the Police Department” and declined further comment.

In April 2012, the MCAD ruled in Graf’s favor after she claimed sex discrimination in a June 5, 2006, complaint.

On that 2006 complaint, the MCAD on April 3, 2012, ordered the town to pay Graf $35,000 in damages for emotional distress, plus 12 percent interest annually from the date the complaint was filed until payment is made and $6,078 in attorney’s fees, MCAD records show.

The MCAD in April 2012 ordered the Police Department to “immediately cease and desist from engaging in discriminatory leave practices on the basis of gender,” according to the April 2012 MCAD decision.

Graf worked as a permanent police officer in West Bridgewater for 16 years, from 1993 until 2009. She retired on April 1, 2009, and receives an annual pension of $44,374, according to the Plymouth County Retirement Association. Graf began working for the West Bridgewater Police Department in 1982, first as a crossing guard, then as a matron and call firefighter.
